Chapter 576 Demon King, the Piper of Hamel
In the distant sky, four figures stood on the protrusion of the realm wall.
A young woman with white hair and wearing revealing white clothing played a flute in her hands, looked down at the stage below her and said:
"The contestants are qualified as opponents, including the little girl [Salamandra], there should be four people, right, Weiser?"
"No, it's three people."
A tall man wearing a black military uniform and short black hair, known as Weser, responded: "That pumpkin is not eligible to participate. Particularly difficult are the vampires and the fire dragons of the class rulers - and they have to be dealt with by the way. Get rid of that fake [Rattenfanger].”
The flute he held in his hand was different from that of the woman in white. It was even as long as the man. It's obviously an unusual length for an instrument.
"but--"
He looked at the stage below. They had also watched the match between [NoName] and [Willo'wisp] just now, in which Fujimaru Ritsuka's performance was particularly eye-catching.
"The little girl with the staff in [NoName] seems to be a bit difficult to wait for when she shows her abilities. Let's get rid of her later, La Ting."
"No problem, just leave it to me~"
La Ting showed a playful smile and responded in a relaxed tone.
The third person could not be called a human at all. The opponent was a fifty-meter-tall giant soldier with ventilation holes dug all over his body like an anthropomorphic flute, which kept emitting strange sounds and vibrations to the surroundings.
In the middle of the three stood a girl wearing a black and white spotted patterned dress.
The girl looked at the faces of the three people one by one and announced in a calm tone without emotion:
"——Then, let's start the gift game. Please act according to the predetermined plan."
"What should I do if I get in the way?"
"You can kill him."
"As you command, MyMaster~!"
…
…
Due to the sudden attack of the Demon King, the auditorium completely exploded into chaos. Everyone was scrambling to escape from the game venue. To describe it as fleeing in a panic is not an exaggeration.
However, now that everyone is involved in the Demon King's game, even if they want to escape, where can they escape?
Being on the stage, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not show any trace of panic, and his expression remained as usual, which was in sharp contrast to the crowd around him.
Seeing her calm performance, Kuro Usagi and Kasukabe Yoshi, who were still a little nervous, couldn't help but calm down.
Then, Fujimaru Ritsuka reached out to catch a black contract document and read the contents on it——
"Gift game name:
【ThePiedPiperofHamelin】
List of contestants:
A community of all participants and organizers currently in the outer gate 3999999, the outer gate 4000000, and the realm wall stage area.
The contestants and organizers designate the game leader:
The runner of the sun, the star spirit Bai Yaksha.
Sponsor's victory conditions:
·Conquer or kill all contestants.
Contestant’s victory conditions:
1. Defeat the organizer’s game leader.
2. Break the hypocritical inheritance and establish a real inheritance.
Oath: Respect the above content and hold a gift game based on the honor, flag and organizer's authority.
【GrimmGimoire.Hameln】Seal"
"Forcing people to enter your game, is this [the organizer's authority]?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka, who experienced the effect of the organizer's authority for the first time, murmured unconsciously.
The ability to ignore people's will and forcefully pull opponents into their own games was originally the trump card held by high-level Shura gods and Buddhas, a test to punish criminals.
The Demon King can also be said to be the one who abused this authority. "But why? Did they cheat?"
Kasukabe Yoshi looked puzzled. Hearing this, Black Rabbit on the side shook his head and said: "Probably not. Since someone else is the referee, it is impossible to get away with it."
Fujimaru Ritsuka felt her own state. Her [Organizer Permission] - the second Noble Phantasm [This is the Journey to Save Humanity] was still frozen, indicating that the rules of the festival were still in effect.
So, how did the other party circumvent the rules?
Fujimaru Ritsuka buried this unanswered question deep in her heart and looked at the game content on the black contract document again.
Conquer or kill all contestants.
The enemy's victory conditions first caught her attention, causing her eyes to freeze, her expression to become more serious, and then she continued to look down.
The name of the game [The Pied Piper of Hamelin], which is the Pied Piper of Hamelin, including [Hameln] in the name of the community engraved at the end of the contract, all indicate that the identity of the other party should be related to the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Highly relevant.
This result is consistent with their guess last night.
As for their side, there are two entry conditions, and it seems that they must be met at the same time to crack the game.
The first one was okay, defeating the enemy leader, but the second one [Break the hypocritical inheritance and establish a real inheritance] made her frown suddenly——
I can’t understand!
And the tips given are too few? !
At this time, she can only feel sorry for not being an intellectual character.
Forget it, let’s meet up with the others first and then talk about it.
Just as she was thinking this, suddenly, the black rabbit beside her seemed to notice something, looked up to the sky, and then suddenly exclaimed:
"My lords—?!"
I saw a black wind suddenly erupted in the palace where Shiro Yaksha, Sandora, Jin and others were, blowing everyone out from the balcony!
[Salamandra]'s people were blown towards the audience, while their [NoName] people fell towards the stage area where they were.
Reverse Izayoi grabbed Jin in mid-air and protected him in his arms. When he was about to touch the ground, he was cushioned by the wind summoned by Fujimaru Ritsuka and fell safely.
Leticia spread her wings to catch the flying bird, and landed gently on the stage.
In this way, everyone in [NoName] completed their rendezvous in an unexpected way.
"My lords, are you okay?!"
"Well, we're fine."
Kuro Usagi rushed in front of a few people with a worried look on his face, and Jin responded to reassure Kuro Usagi. Fujimaru Ritsuka and Kasukabe Yoshi followed closely. Fujimaru Ritsuka asked:
"What happened to you over there?"
Hearing this, Ren suddenly became a little nervous and said:
"Sir Baiyaksha seems to have been sealed suddenly and was trapped on the balcony and unable to move!"
The black wind just now was an attack against Bai Yaksha, and they were only affected.
"What?"
Black Rabbit and others' hearts sank. They didn't expect that the other party actually had a plan to target ShiroYasha. Izayoi said with a grin:
"It seems that the other party really has two attacks. He is worthy of being the real Demon King! In this case, it is up to us to defeat the Demon King, right?!"
Although his smile was still frivolous, his eyes were more serious than ever.
Fujimaru Ritsuka said:
"Anyway, let's make an action plan first."
Since the current situation was chaotic and needed to take action against the clock, Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly made an allocation without any time for discussion—
Black Rabbit went to look for Sandora and others, Kuon Asuka and Kasukabe Yao went to confirm Shiroyasha's situation, and she, Izayoi Izayoi and Leticia were responsible for dealing with the demon king's offensive that might attack at any time.
"Please wait a moment."
At this time, Aisha and Jack from [Willo'wisp] also came over and expressed their willingness to help fight against the Demon King, so they were assigned by Fujimaru Ritsuka to go with Black Rabbit to find Sandora.
Everyone nodded in agreement and dispersed to perform their tasks. At this moment, another scream came from the fleeing audience——
"Look! The devil has appeared!!"
